Aaaaahhh, one of my absolute faves. I cannot hear that song without tearing up!

Also, I love Still the One by Shania Twain. It reminds me of my parents who had a shotgun marriage and are still married 35+ years later.

Whitney Houston's version of the Star Spangled Banner from the Super Bowl. I get chills every time I hear it replayed.

Oh Snoopy, I am SO jealous. I don't think I could have made it through a concert of hers without sobbing, her voice was just so beautiful.
